New Balance 204L: Low Suede Runners, the 327 Wedge and Their Court Cousins

The New Balance 204L leads this edit of low-profile suede runners, the lugged 327 and a few court and skate cousins in neutral colors. I say which color I would wear with which pants and what to check when you try a pair on.

A Garmin watch started with a running engineer and a GPS unit strapped to a wrist, and this edit sorts the Venu, vívoactive, Forerunner, Lily, fēnix and Instinct lines by how you actually live in them. I say when I would reach for each one and what to check on your wrist.

The Worn-In Retro Runner: Flat Suede Sneakers for Fall

This edit rounds up suede retro runners, slim leather trainers and softly distressed low-tops, with a mix of flat and platform soles. I would start with the finish and fit, then choose the height that works for you.

Nike P-6000: The 2019 Runner That Looks Straight Out of 2006

This Nike P-6000 edit covers the silver, white, colorful and black pairs, plus the Vomero 5 and other early-2000s Nike runners that sit next to it. I like it because it is a shoe that never existed and still looks like a memory.

Gifts for Runners Women: Kathrine Switzer and Boston's Bib 261

Gifts for runners women work best when they belong to the miles she already runs, from a familiar shoe to a layer, a pair of socks or a recovery tool. I would choose around her routine, her fit preferences and the small details she reaches for every week.

Linen Shorts: From Boys' Catalog Playwear to Women's Sport

Linen shorts have a surprisingly social history, since Sears' spring and summer 1930 catalog listed imported striped linen shorts for boys aged 4 to 10. By 1934 FIT says women's sports clothes were getting briefer, and Vogue's June 1936 issue debated when women could wear shorts. This is how to choose linen shorts that look cool and not rumpled.

Cordova Ski Suits: Belted Down Suits From Jane and Cody Seim

Cordova ski suits are belted, quilted down suits from a brand Jane and Cody Seim started in 2016. I look at the belted waist, the pants that take a belt too, and the shearling and shell suit that stays warm without the bulk.

Goldbergh Ski Wear: The Amsterdam Label Founded in 2009

Goldbergh was founded in Amsterdam in 2009 by sportswear designer Lieke van den Berg and retailer Sandra Peet, and the label now ships to around 70 countries. This edit sorts that range from the pieces built for real function to the ones meant to be seen at apres-ski.

The Nike Elite Backpack V2 Is Built For Gym Bag Chaos

Nike's Elite backpacks organize basketball gear with dedicated shoe storage, ventilation, and a range of capacities built around actual practice routines. The line solves a more specific problem than a standard commuter bag by treating shoes and a ball as gear that need their own space. This edit sorts the range by how much load a given routine actually carries.

Falke Ergonomic Sport System

Falke started in 1895 as a small knitting mill in Schmallenberg, Germany, founded by Franz Falke-Rohen, and the family still runs the company from that same town. Notes on the Ergonomic Sport System, the line that carries that knitting know-how into base layers, leggings and socks built to move with you.

Tennis Club Dressing Off the Court

Tennis whites have become a mood rather than a sport. Pleated skirts, polo knits and visors now show up at brunch more than at the courts. This edit is the court look without the match.

The sport's shoe starts with a 1917 coach's note and the Converse Non-Skid, and today it runs through WNBA signature pairs, Jordans and retro Chucks. I would wear the light low-tops this October.

Brooks Glycerin: The Plush Runner From a Brand That Began With Ballet Slippers

This Brooks Glycerin edit covers the plush Glycerin 23, GTS support, Max 2, Flex and the other max-cushion Brooks. I would start with how the shoe fits and where you will actually wear it.

Tennis Shoes: Court Performance Pairs, Classics and Designer Sneakers

Tennis shoes were mostly rubber and canvas for decades, and this edit sorts designer sneakers, performance pairs and court classics. I say when I would reach for each one and what to check on the sole.

FP Movement: From Yoga Line to Trail-Ready Layers

FP Movement moves through leggings, sports bras, onesies, fleeces, shorts, and skorts, with yoga, running, and hiking in mind. I like how its active pieces leave room for the hours around a workout.

Beyond Yoga Leggings: Fit, Fabrics and Best Buys

Beyond Yoga is the Los Angeles activewear label built on the idea that comfort should fit every body. I live in soft leggings more than I admit, so this edit is the pieces I would build a wardrobe around.

On Running Shoes: Which Cloud Styles to Know

On is the Swiss running label that began with a retired athlete and a few pieces of garden hose glued to a sole. I like that you can still see the idea in every shoe, and this edit is for wearing it well beyond the track.
